What a wonderful experience to bring back the old Drive-In during this covid-19 and extreme heat. The experience was fantastic no issues, just a lot of great people having a great time.

Great Venue love the building, so much history in it,. I was honoured to be at the Movie Premier of Rose England Produced and directed by GINA CAREY, Brilliant event, loads of celebrities and press and the after party was off the hook, great staff, friendly and welcoming,. I am definitely going back for a future Premier.Please look at some of the amazing images of the Premier event,. Miss Gina Carey did an amazing job, along with everyone behind the scenes who made it such a brilliant success..

Small independent theater with three small theaters. Comfortable seating. Great selection of different showings. Small snack counter (cash is better here than card). Nice location!

One of the best little theaters left in the world. Three auditoriums showing excellent movies. Plus documentaries and live entertainment as well. And it even has an exceptional attached cafe!

Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the GREATEST! Tuesdays $6.00 for the movie and Wednesdays $7.00 gets you free popcorn and a movie.You cant beat that!PLUS luxury seating...plush & cozy seating with reclining seats. However, the theater is literally freezing, so dont forget to bring along a cozy jacket (NOT a thin summer jacket) I am NOT kidding.

Very nice theater that shows foreign and independent movies in Palm Springs. Downstairs there is a cafe that serves sandwiches, salads, pastas and other simpler fare. Several types of beer and wine are available. On the weekends there is a restaurant upstairs with a full service bar. Also, good to know that the Palm Springs farmers market is located on the North Side of the Camelot building on Saturday mornings during the fall through spring.

Beautiful 3-theater movie house. Reasonable ticket prices for independent films, including senior pricing. The place was clean with comfy seats, nice choice of movie snacks, tidy ladies room, and lots of parking.

The movie theater is the only venue to see Art House Films in Palm Springs. Comfortable seats, AC, good sound, and concessions that actually sell great popcorn!

Welcoming all film and performing arts patrons, Camelot owners Ric and Rozene Supple have a long and proud history of presenting the best of the best in film and live performance art, as well as welcoming and supporting the LGBTQ communities; sometimes inevitably in the face of opposition by those who are less enlightened.Camelot Theatres is located on the south side of the Palm Springs Mall parking lot at 2300 Baristo Road, Palm Springs. Camelot Theatres is a three-screen movie house and entertainment complex specializing in first-run art film, foreign film, independent film features and special events.Newly renovated in 1999, it is one of a handful of theatres in the country with its level of technical sophistication. As the wizards of sound and projection have continued to innovate, Camelot Theatres has kept pace. The large house (548 seats) also contains a performance platform for live performances and the small house (152 seats) contains a lecture stage. The theatre is programmed 52 weeks a year and is also available for group sales and rental.The facility also houses Ric’s Cafe, featuring a large canopied outdoor patio and offering a complete menu of fresh salads, sandwiches, bakery goods, beer, wine and gourmet coffees. Camelot Theatres also has a full liquor license and offers complete catering services for groups and special events.

The coziest theatre with award winning foreign and independent films. Excellent snack bar menu. So much nicer than the multiplexes.

It is nice and has good facilities, concessions, and people. But, the seats are too upright and take too much force to lean back, which makes them rather uncomfortable for me.

What used to be a nice theater to go see the non-blockbuster movies has seemed to have gone downhill since it changed names to the Cultural Center. Not sure if its management or what but you never can be assured the place is open anymore. Closed for this and closed for that you just dont know. Its sad because it was a great place to see the art-house movies.

Review №36

An older theater with modern updates including a bar! I wouldnt necessarily recommend younger kids for this theater, just for the simple fact is the backs of the chairs are pretty high and unless your little ones have a booster seat, theyre going to struggle to see over the seat in front of them, not to mention if theres a person in it. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the theater was immaculate.

I love this place! My favorite theater of all time. They also serve full dinner and have a great bar and bartender as well. I suggest you try the summer retro film series where they present older films and then serve a dinner themed to match the film.

I went to see a play here by Coyote Theater Players or something like that. It was an interesting play and well-acted. Nice old theater. They show movies here too and have a well-stocked concession stand!

Review №51

This is the best movie theatre in the Coachella Valley. It is like an old fashioned theatre where it is very easy to park and they has a small but very adequate concessions stand. There is also a restaurant upstairs if you want a complete meal. All the employees are kind and helpful. They do not try to nickel and dime you. They show more serious art house movies and documentaries. I think you can tell how much I appreciate this movie house !

The Camelot is your favorite theater for everything it is not. It is not big, it is intimate. It wont show you the film that made most stars so super, but it hosts superstars favorite films. It wont let you sleep, it will wake you to new realities we face together.

Review №96

We had a 6:30 dinner reservation at the cafe upstairs before the 8pm show. We got there and none of the 3 servers knew what to do. We were finally seated period. At 6:45 someone brought us water then walked away. At 6:50 we begged to have our order taken. Our food arrived at 7:45. We had 15 minutes to eat. This was no problem since the food was enedible. We again had to beg to be cashed out. What an absolute let down. Ill always go back for the movies, never again for the cafe.
